Danika has 1/4 lb apple and a 3/16 apple. We have to find a common denominator to be able to subtract them. We can do this by finding out 4 times how much equals 16. Which is 4. So you multiply both of the numbers by 4, (1x4 = 4 , 4x4 = 16) being 4/16. Now you just have to subtract the top numbers "4-3 = 1" 1/16.

PLEASE HELP if Suzy can drive 4/5 miles in a half hour how many miles can she drive in 1 hour FOR A TEST PLEASE ANSWER

kati45 [8]

Since you are trying to figure out how many miles she can drive in 1 hour and you already have half of that hour, all you would need to do is double that number.
$\frac{4}{5}$ × $\frac{2}{1}$ = $\frac{8}{5}$

Now, all you would need to do is simplify the answer.
$\frac{8}{5}$ = 1 $\frac{3}{5}$ or 1.6

The answer would be, Suzy can drive 1 $\frac{3}{5}$ or 1.6 miles in 1 hour.

I hope this helps!
